Embodiment
There is multiple implementation in UWB of the present invention system, can have at least two UWB unit in every kind of scheme, and at least one antenna.By the controller in the system above-mentioned at least two UWB unit are controlled, can be realized that these UWB unit work simultaneously and do not disturb mutually, the antenna in perhaps can shared system.UWB unit described here can be the MBOA unit, also can be DS-UWB unit and the combination of the two.
Be example with the first embodiment of the present invention below, a kind of multimode UWB system with different systems UWB unit is described.Wherein, by controller the UWB unit of different systems being controlled, works simultaneously and does not disturb mutually in the UWB unit that can realize different systems.
The UWB system of first embodiment of the invention has two UWB unit, and respectively with two UWB unit in each two corresponding antenna, promptly two UWB unit are mutually independently.In this case, UWB system design scheme of the present invention as shown in Figure 1.
As can see from Figure 1, main frame 10 has been connected two UWB unit by interface 30a respectively with interface 30b, i.e. MBOA unit 40a herein and DS-UWB unit 40b.Wherein, main frame 10 can be a desktop computer, notebook computer, and mobile phone or other similar equipment, it has the controller in communication 20 of control UWB unit.This controller 20 can be physically an independent module, for example single-chip microcomputer etc.Perhaps, this controller 20 can be the universal cpu of operation particular code, and for example on notebook computer, controller 20 can be the notebook CPU of the specific control program of operation; And on smart mobile phone, then controller 20 can be the mobile phone embedded type CPU of the specific control program of operation.
In addition, main frame 10 has and is used for being connected with each UWB unit in the present embodiment, thus the interface that communicates, i.e. interface 30a and 30b herein.Wherein interface 30a and interface 30b can be serial ports, the USB mouth, and one of various interfaces such as mini-PCI mouth, it is corresponding to the employed interface in corresponding UWB unit.By using corresponding interface to receive or sending the MAC Frame, controller 20 can obtain the relevant information of each UWB unit, perhaps relevant control information is sent to corresponding UWB unit.
Can recognize, although this mode of sentencing controller in the main frame and interface module has been described communicating by letter of the controller that is used to control the UWB unit and controller and UWB module, realize but also can make otherwise, for example, use an independent single-chip microcomputer to come the work of each UWB unit is controlled, its with the UWB module between communicate by letter can be with directly sending the MAC Frame, rather than realize by the mode of interface.
Each UWB unit comprises RF module, base band/MAC module and interface module among Fig. 1.For example, MBOA unit 40a herein comprises its RF module 50a, base band/MAC module 60a and interface module 70a; And DS-UWB unit 40b comprises its RF module 50b, base band/MAC module 60b and interface module 70b.
Wherein, (for example 70a 70b) generally is USB or PCI specification to the interface module of each UWB unit, can be other type also, is used for comprising transfer of data with main frame 10, receives control command, the perhaps various communications of status information transmission.This communication is generally carried out with the form of MAC Frame, and promptly the interface module of each unit will send to the MAC layer base band/MAC module from the MAC Frame that main frame 10 receives, and perhaps will send to main frame 10 from the MAC Frame that the MAC layer receives.
The MAC layer of the base band of each unit/MAC module can receive from the MAC Frame of main frame 10 or sends Frame to main frame from separately interface module, and judges that the MAC Frame that receives is control command or the data that will transmit.
When the MAC Frame from main frame 10 is control command, come executable operations according to this control command, for example, define the wireless channel shared mechanism of a plurality of user data and carry out some safe handlings as encrypting, authentication etc., as needs, return corresponding state information with the form of MAC Frame, the interface module by separately sends to main frame 10.Especially, it can send the signal strength signal intensity that detects itself, and device name is waited until controller or received the order that is provided with about channel of self-controller.
When the MAC Frame from main frame 10 is data, then this MAC Frame is sent to the Base-Band Processing part in base band/MAC module.Base-Band Processing part in base band/MAC module will be carried out coded modulation etc. from the Frame that the MAC layer is sent here on the one hand, add some corresponding headers then and then deliver to the RF module section for sending, perhaps will decode from the RF signal of RF module on the other hand, recover the MAC Frame after the demodulation, pass to the MAC layer then, the interface module by separately sends to main frame 10.
The RF module section of each unit (50a for example, 50b) mainly be the carrier modulation of carrying out as baseband signal, filtering, frequency conversion, power amplifier, go out by antenna transmission thereby baseband digital signal is modulated into analog signal, perhaps the analog signal that antenna is received changes into digital signal and delivers to base band/MAC module (60a for example, Base-Band Processing part 60b).The antenna here mainly is to receive aerial wireless signal and be input in the equipment or the radiofrequency signal that the RF module section modulates is converted into electromagnetic wave to send in the air.In the present embodiment, the RF module of each UWB unit is connected with the UWB antenna (i.e. 80a herein and 80b) of himself.
When two UWB unit in the system carry out work simultaneously, if the frequency range that they use is identical or approaching, the situation of phase mutual interference will take place so.Therefore to make two UWB unit can work simultaneously and can not influence each other, must find out the pattern that they can exist jointly.
In the DS-UWB standard, whole UWB bandwidth (3.1-10.6GHz) is divided into two groups: low band (3.1-4.85GHz), high band (6.2-9.7GHz).And the MBOA standard is divided into 5 groups to whole UWB bandwidth, is respectively 3.1-4.7GHz, 4.7-6.3GHz, 6.3-7.9GHz, 7.9-9.5GHz and 9.5-10.5GHz.When launching then, every group of inside (in) as the 1st group, frequency hopping between 3 frequency ranges, the pattern of every kind of frequency hopping is called a TF code, is equivalent to a logic channel, for example organizes in 1 (Group 1), 7 frequency modulation pattern TF code 1-7 are arranged, be equivalent to group 1 is divided into 7 logic channels.Therefore, can be according to the pattern of frequency hopping and the group at place, relatively two frequency band batch totals of DS-UWB calculate the channel that they do not disturb mutually then, shown in following form 1.
Table 1
The coexistence mode The DS-UWB channel The MBOA channel
1 Low band Group 2,TF code 1,2,3,4,6,7
2 Low band Group 3,TF code 1-7
3 Low band Group4,TF code 1-7
The coexistence mode The DS-UWB channel The MBOA channel
4 Low band Group 5,TF code 5-6
5 High band Group 1,TF code 1-7
6 High band Group 2,TF code 1-6
As seen, when the channel non-interference of two UWB cell operation, just can realize under the control of controller that they work simultaneously and do not disturb mutually.In addition, from top description, as can be seen,,, just can not produce situation about disturbing each other as long as the frequency band group of their work is different for the identical situation of the standard of two UWB unit.
Below in conjunction with the flow chart description of Fig. 2 and Fig. 3 under controller 20 controls, the idiographic flow of the UWB system works among the embodiment of Fig. 1.Wherein, there are two kinds of operating states each UWB unit, i.e. the search of same category of device with the communicating by letter of same category of device.In the search of same category of device, generally scan its all channel; And searching after same category of device shakes hands, the channel that then uses controller to distribute communicates.Therefore, the purpose of controller control is to avoid under the above-mentioned two states, the phase mutual interference of two or more UWB unit.
The flow chart description of Fig. 2 (a) in the UWB system two UWB unit from searching for respectively, the process that connects and communicate to one of them.For clearly explanation, two UWB unit are called a UWB unit and the 2nd UWB unit.As a UWB unit, and the DS-UWB unit is as the 2nd UWB unit such as, MBOA unit, perhaps can be conversely.And, being not limited to two kinds of UWB unit here, also can occur between a plurality of similar UWB unit, between the perhaps multiple UWB unit, as long as do not disturb mutually for the selected working channel in these UWB unit satisfies in following process.
In step 100, search for by two UWB units alternatelies of controller 20 controls.Concrete, controller 20 sends instruction two UWB units alternatelies is closed, such as allowing DS-UWB unit 40b close 5 seconds, this moment, MBOA unit 40a just searched for separately, allow MBOA unit 40a close afterwards again 5 seconds and open DS-UWB unit 40b, this moment, DS-UWB unit 40b just searched for separately.So just can avoid the interference in the search procedure.
In case a UWB unit searches wherein is to its same category of device around, they just can be shaken hands, such as synchronously, and authentication, channel is provided with negotiation, and base band and MAC layer parameter such as are provided with at work, and begin to communicate by letter.Simultaneously, controller 20 (step 110) is informed with relevant channel information in a UWB unit, for example comprises the MAC Frame of correlated channels information to controller 20 by transmission.Because this moment, the 2nd UWB unit also was in closed condition, therefore, it can not exert an influence to the communication of a UWB unit.
Controller 20 can be determined the channel that can work in the 2nd UWB unit according to above-mentioned form 1 after receiving the channel information of a UWB unit, simultaneously definite channel information is sent to the 2nd UWB unit (step 120) with the form that is included in the instruction in the MAC Frame by interface module.After instruction is received in the 2nd UWB unit, just begin to carry out the search (step 130) of same category of device according to controller 20 determined channels.
For example, after the MBOA unit 40a among Fig. 1 searched its similar MBOA equipment 90a, negotiated channel was set to " Group 4, TF code 1 " and sends to controller 20.Controller 20 is received behind this channel information and to be determined that according to above-mentioned form 1 the recommendation channel of DS-UWB unit 40b is " Lowband " so, sends to DS-UWB unit 40b with the form of instruction by interface module 30b.Like this, when DS-UWB unit 40b searches for its same category of device 90b, must recommend channel " Lowband " to carry out according to this.Thereby two UWB unit can carry out the search of transfer of data work and same category of device simultaneously and can not influence each other.
The flow chart description of Fig. 2 (b) two UWB unit communicate from one of them, another carries out the process of carrying out communication separately simultaneously that searches of same category of device.
In step 200, the UWB unit in two UWB unit is carrying out transfer of data, and the 2nd UWB unit is in the search of carrying out same category of device.When same category of device was found in the 2nd UWB unit searched for, they just can shake hands, such as synchronously, and authentication, channel is provided with negotiation, and base band and MAC layer parameter such as are provided with at work, and begin to communicate by letter.Simultaneously, controller 20 (step 210) is informed with relevant channel information in the 2nd UWB unit.For example the DS-UWB unit 40b that searches at channel " Low band " has found same category of device 90b, through shaking hands, the channel of its foundation is controller 20 specified " Low Band ", and it tells controller 20 with this channel setting, can communicate according to the signal of setting with that.Like this, because newly-established channel is appointment according to controller 20, with the channel of the employed channel compatibility in a UWB unit, can phase mutual interference (step 220) thereby two unit can carry out work simultaneously.
The flow chart description of Fig. 3 (a) when ought communicate in two UWB unit of work one simultaneously and stop communication work, the relevant control of controller 20.
In step 300, two unit respectively and same category of device separately communicate.When a UWB unit finished communication, it told relevant information to controller 20 (step 310).
Controller 20 is received after this information,, determines to finish the operable channel information in a UWB unit of communication, and sends to a UWB unit (step 320) at the channel information of the 2nd UWB unit that communicates according to still.For example, when at channel Group 2, when the MBOA unit 40a of TF code 1 work finished communication, it was with this report information controller 20.The channel that controller 20 communicates according to DS-UWB unit 40b, for example, Low band determines that from table 1 MBOA unit 40a searches for operable channel, and control MBOA unit 40a searches for.Thereby two UWB unit can carry out the search of transfer of data work and same category of device and can not influence each other (step 330) simultaneously.
The flow chart description of Fig. 3 (b) two UWB unit communicate from one of them, another carries out the process that searching of same category of device searched for respectively.In step 400, the 2nd UWB unit in two UWB unit carry out transfer of data work and and a UWB unit in the search of carrying out same category of device.When the 2nd UWB unit that communicates finished communication, it told relevant information to controller 20 (step 410).Controller 20 is received after this information, just can arrange two unit to carry out the search work of same category of device separately respectively.
For example, when the DS-UWB unit 40b power cut-off that communicates, with this information notification controller 20.Controller 20 just can arrange two unit to search in turn, to avoid the interference (step 420) in the search procedure as previously mentioned.
Therefore, control, make it be operated in the pattern of not disturbing mutually, just can realize two unit co-operation and can not influence each other by 20 pairs of two UWB unit of controller.Can recognize, be connected to same main frame 10 for plural UWB unit, and each UWB unit all has the situation of stand-alone antenna, use above-mentioned mode by controller 20, mode of operation with each UWB unit, i.e. same category of device search separately and with the communications status of same category of device, be set under the pattern that can not disturb mutually, can realize the integrated of these multiple UWB unit.For example, can use two DS-UWB unit and a MBOA unit, can be according to above-mentioned form 1, use above-mentioned control method, by controller 20 (for example three UWB unit communicate work together) in a period of time two DS-UWB unit are controlled at Low band channel and High band channel communication respectively, and the MBOA unit controls is at Group 2, TF code 1 channel communication, just can realize a kind of integrated three UWB unit, and can three systems of working simultaneously in the UWB unit.
In addition, regarding to each UWB unit on can use the situation of different channels to be described in new each time communication process.Can recognize, by the channel with the different UWB unit be fixed on all the time specific non-interfering channel carry out same category of device search and with the communicating by letter of same category of device, also can be implemented in integrated a plurality of UWB unit in the UWB system.
In addition, a plurality of UWB unit is integrated in one intrasystem the time, may occur available antenna more than or be less than the situation of UWB element number.For the situation of available antenna quantity, roughly with the processing in the first embodiment of the invention more than the UWB element number.And be less than the situation of UWB element number for available antenna quantity, and need the work of 20 pairs of each UWB unit of controller to control, make a plurality of UWB unit can use an antenna jointly and conflict can not occur.
Fig. 4 is a kind of execution mode of this UWB system.Have two UWB unit in this UWB system, but have only an antenna 80.That is, as shown in Figure 4, MBOA unit 40a here and DS-UWB unit 40b RF unit (50a and 50b) separately all is connected to same antenna 80.Therefore, can only use this antenna 80 by a UWB unit, must control by the use of 20 pairs of antennas 80 of controller like this in the same period.
Below in conjunction with the idiographic flow of coordinating two UWB cell operation among the embodiment of flow chart description Fig. 4 of Fig. 5 by controller 20.With top the same,, two UWB unit are called a UWB unit and the 2nd UWB unit for clearly explanation.As a UWB unit, and the DS-UWB40b unit is as the 2nd UWB unit such as, MBOA unit 40a, perhaps can be conversely.
The flow chart description of Fig. 5 (a) among the embodiment of Fig. 4, by controller 20 control carrying out equipment search and the process that connects.In step 500, carry out the search of equipment separately in turn by two UWB unit of controller 20 controls.This can do a simple control by controller 20, controls two UWB units alternatelies and searches for.For example, controller 20 sends instruction and gives two UWB unit in turn with the antenna control, such as allowing DS-UWB unit 40b use antenna 80 search 5 seconds, this moment, MBOA unit 40a was in holding state, allow MBOA unit 40a use antenna 80 search 5 seconds afterwards again and make the 40b standby of DS-UWB unit, the so just search that can replace equipment separately.
In step 510, when a UWB unit is using in the process that antenna 80 searches for, found same category of device, just information such as the device name of institute's discovering device and signal strength signal intensity are sent to controller 20.Controller 20 is received after these information, the antenna control is switched to the 2nd UWB unit searched for a period of time, for example 5 seconds (step 520) at once.If same category of device is not found in the 2nd UWB unit in search procedure, so just communicate (step 530) to connecting between a UWB unit and its discovering device; If same category of device has also been found in the 2nd UWB unit in search procedure, so also information such as the device name of institute's discovering device and signal strength signal intensity are sent to controller 20 (step 540).Device name and signal strength signal intensity that this moment, controller 20 can be found two UWB unit separately report to the user, select an equipment to carry out related communication by the user; Perhaps, select the equipment that communicates by controller 20 voluntarily according to a certain rule (for example selecting the big equipment of signal strength signal intensity), connecting between the UWB unit that can select user or controller 20 and its discovering device afterwards communicates (step 550).
The flow chart description of Fig. 5 (b) in the enforcement structure of Fig. 4, the process that controller 20 is controlled during sign off.In step 600, the 2nd UWB unit in two UWB unit is communicating work and and a UWB unit is in holding state.When the 2nd UWB unit finished communication, it told relevant information to controller 20 (step 610).Controller 20 is received after this information, just can arrange two UWB unit to carry out the search work of same category of device separately.For example, when the DS-UWB unit 40b power cut-off that communicates, with this information notification controller 20.Controller 20 just can arrange two unit to search in turn, to use the same antenna (step 620) in turn as previously mentioned.
Therefore, control, realized only using a UWB antenna just two UWB unit to be integrated by the use of 20 pairs of antennas of controller.Can recognize, be connected to same main frame 10 for plural UWB unit, and the situation of antenna, adopt controller 20 that the right to use of antenna is distributed to each UWB unit, can realize the integrated of these UWB unit.
In addition, can recognize, by being used in combination aforesaid two kinds of controller control methods, can be implemented in and use the antenna that is less than the UWB element number in the system, integrated a plurality of UWB unit, and can work simultaneously and can the phase mutual interference in these UWB unit. for example, a kind of integrated system of three UWB unit, one of them DS-UWB unit and community antenna of a common use in MBOA unit, and an independent MBOA unit uses stand-alone antenna. the method above using by controller among the embodiment 2 controls the DS-UWB unit and the MBOA units alternately uses community antenna, and use when using two antennas of method control among the embodiment 1 to work simultaneously not can the phase mutual interference frequency range, just can realize this three the UWB unit that have, the system of two UWB antennas, and can work and can the phase mutual interference simultaneously in two UWB unit wherein.
Further, though be that example is illustrated with DS-UWB and MBOA unit among the present invention,, when different systems co-exists in the system, can adopt above-mentioned same or similar method to realize for other possible standards.
